River Corridor Protection Area Meander Belt = River Corridor - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

River Corridor Protection Area Meander Belt = River Corridor Protection Area River Corridor Protection Area Meander Belt indicates the space needed by the river to achieve a vertically stable least erosive slope River Corridor Protection


  1. River Corridor Protection Area Meander Belt = River Corridor Protection Area

  2. River Corridor Protection Area Meander Belt indicates the space needed by the river to achieve a vertically stable least erosive slope

  3. River Corridor Protection Area Development encroaches up to the edge of the meander belt

  4. River Corridor Protection Area Black Lines = Bank Armoring to Protect new structures Channel management will limit meander migration before river gets out to edge of the meander belt

  5. From FEH to River Corridors Black Lines = Bank Armoring to Protect new structures Opportunity lost to achieve a least erosive slope River confined and still energized – erosion hazards not minimized

  6. River Corridors River Corridor adds 50’ to each side of the Meander Belt

  7. River Corridors River Corridor adds 50’ to each side of the Meander Belt Provides space for stable boundary conditions and stable meander geometry Erosion hazards minimized
